Although not yet completed, the conical pine tree at Bo Son parish is already very beautiful. During the day, under the sunlight, the tree sparkles with its conical leaves, looking both unique and poetic. Photo: Huy Thu |

According to Mr. Le Van Hoang, Head of the Youth Committee of Bo Son Parish, in addition to the nearly 2-meter-tall star that glows at night, two snow-spraying machines will be added to the top of the Christmas tree. Using familiar conical hats as the material for the Christmas tree not only honors the traditional beauty of the homeland but also conveys another message: the people of Central Vietnam, despite natural disasters, harsh weather, and floods, still rise up resiliently.
